If they were late, the others would snatch them all up. Just like the Basic Demonpower Armor Plates, they had already become legends.
According to those legends, quite a few players had leaped into becoming experts because they had snatched up Basic Demonpower Armor Plates early on. Some ordinary teams had also become top-tier teams, capable of challenging Difficult Team Dungeons and even Hell-Grade Team Dungeons—though Hell-Grade Team Dungeons only went up to ten-player dungeons.
